Yeah...imagine me soldering this with my shaky hands.....
I actually amazed myself this week, I designed a board that has to use very small components, the board itself (have to hold it in hands, no holder) - 0.5x1.8", and the components like SC-70-8, with pins 0.5mm (20 mils) from each other with the pin itself being 12 mils wide, with 8 mils space between them. Compared to that the 0402 resistors (40x20 mils) are gigantic.
Soldered the whole thing.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
